To all whom it may concern.-

Be it known that we, HARRY R. ATWATER and CARL P. EIOHLER, citizens of the United States, and residents of Cleveland, county of Ouyahoga, and State of Ohio, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Sink-Cleaners, of which the following is a specification, the principle of the invention being herein explained and the best mode in which we have contemplated applying that principle, so as to distinguish it from other inventions.

In the annexed drawings, Figure I is a top plan view of our improved sink cleaner. Fig. II is a bottom plan view. Fig. III is a cross-sectional view taken on the line 3 3 of Fig. I.

The sink cleaner is formed from sheet metal; and it consists of the triangular blade A, whose side edges extend forward from the rear and converge in straight lines to form the front end of the cleaner. tion of the blade is formed with the upwardlyinclined edge a, and the handle A is made integral with such edge. One side edge a of the blade is formed downwardly inclined and carries the brush B, such brush being securedto said edge by the socket b, riveted to said edge. The central portion of the blade is formed with the longitudinal depression 0,

wardly and outwardly.

The rear por- I so that from the latter the two side edge portions of the blade respectively incline up- The front end (Z of the blade is thus made triangularly pointed.

Other modes of applying the principle of our invention may be employed for the mode herein explained. Change may therefore be made as regards the mechanism thus disclosed, provided the principles of construction set forth in the following claim are employed.

e therefore particularly point out and distinctly claim as our invention' The herein-described sink-cleaner, consisting of the triangular blade Ahaving the upwardly-inclined rear edge a, integral with the handle A, the downwardly-inclined side edge a carrying the brush B in socket b, the central longitudinal depression 0, and the triangularpointed front end d, substantially as set forth.

In testimony that We claim the foregoing to be our invention We have hereunto set our hands this 31st day of December, A. D. 1895.
